Hospital managers step down after criticism

A hospital which was put into special measures is looking for new managers after its two top bosses resigned. The Chairman and Chief Executive of the Medway NHS Trust have announced they're both stepping down.

It comes at time when the hospital is trying to turn itself around following a series of highly critical reports. Tom Savvides has the latest. He spoke to Rehman Chishti, MP for Gillngham and Rainham.

The two senior managers of a failing hospital have announced they're stepping down from their posts.

Chairman Denise Harker and Chief Executive Mark Devlin are in charge of The Medway Martime Hospital in Gillingham.

The hospital has been criticised in a number of reports about patient safety and has been put on 'special measures" and told to improve.

Earlier this week it was announced that an extra five million pounds was to be spent improving the A and E Department.
